Catalyzing Research at the Intersection of AI and Learning
The AI and Education Initiative facilitates research at the intersection of AI and learning for all people, of all ages and backgrounds, and all the topics and contexts where learning happens. It transcends disciplinary boundaries, drawing on perspectives on learning spanning computing, education, design, social sciences, medicine, business, and beyond.
